Teeth Whitening

One surefire way to perk up your smile is to whiten your teeth. Depending on the amount of dental work you’ve had, your mouth’s sensitivity and the color of your teeth, your dentist can suggest appropriate whitening methods:

Whitening toothpaste. Including mild abrasives and other agents, these can remove minor surface stains.

Professional In-Office Whitening. Usually done in one visit, the dentist applies a whitening agent to the teeth while shielding the gums to reduce possible irritation. Sometimes special lights are used to enhance the process. Natural teeth can be immediately whitened.

Home Whitening. Typically involving a custom-made tray that you fill with a peroxide-based whitening agent to be applied to teeth over several days, this method is dentist-prescribed but can be lower cost than in-office treatments.
